I think we still need bios option. For example, consider a system where BIOS needs to keep ECRC enabled for integrity reasons but if kernel doesn't want it for perf reasons, then, kernel can always use 'ecrc=off' option.
I agree that "on" and "off" option makes sense. Since the kernel defaults ecrc setting to "bios", why again allow it as a command line option?
Agree. "on" and "off" are fine but "default" is redundant. Do you want
me to push a change to remove that as part of this patch itself? I think
it is more like a cleanup and should go separately.
